this context, any given hieroglyphic symbol became a synthesis of<br />

polarities of particular oppositions of forces, held in balance by the<br />

glyph - the information - itself.<br />

Without a doubt, this broadly Hegelian view brought de Lubicz<br />

to the attention of the Nazis, and vice versa. But more importantly,<br />

it was de Lubicz's knowledge of Egyptian "science-religion" that<br />

may lurk in the background of the statements of the Japanese<br />

attache to Stockholm's curious statements about Sirius in his secret<br />

cable to Tokyo regarding the German atom bomb program that we<br />

examined in part one, for de Lubicz would have been in a position<br />

to point out the significance of Sirius to the Egyptians. For then, it<br />

"played the role of a central sun to our entire solar system" and<br />

suggested to de Lubicz "the existence of a cosmic system of atomic<br />

structure whose nucleus is this 'Great Provider,' the Sothis... of the<br />

ancients." 23 De Lubicz would have known as well the ancient<br />

symbolism and association with the three colors of the German<br />

national flag - black, red, and white - with ancient Egypt and<br />

Atlantis, 24 a symbolism of which the Nazis themselves were likely<br />

aware. Thus in its Egyptian variation, the "Black Sun" myth is<br />

bound up with the star system of Sirius, and with all the<br />

associations with death resurrection, and the "life force" that this<br />

entailed within Pharaonic religion.<br />

For the SS Ahnenerbe, all this was a potent mix when one<br />

recalls that Himmler's stated purpose for it, reveled in a letter he<br />

wrote to an Ahnenerbe scientist, was not only to study ancient<br />

religion, science, and the occult, but also that its principal<br />

establishment was as "an institute for military scientific research." 24<br />

Consequently, the Ahnenerbe scientists working on its various<br />

secret projects had an ideological basis for the more mundane<br />

scientific view that the "Black Sun" was but the extremely strong<br />

gravitational force exhibited by the large mass rotating around the<br />

galactic center. Ancient texts might be able to afford a key to the<br />

recovery of a lost science, a science very different from the<br />
